About this property

Beautiful Country House, Large Heated Private Pool, Gardens, Play Area

Friday Changeover.
This is a charming property full of character, and beautifully furnished throughout, with many choices of fabulous outside terraces, eating places and quiet areas to sit back and totally immerse yourself in nature. If you are a couple on your honeymoon, friends on vacation, or a family wanting some good quality time together, then there is something for everyone at La Borie Grande!
You have the feel of the 17th century, but all the upgrades and comfort of home. Ideal for those seeking relaxation and outdoor activities.
The large heated swimming pool area is completely secluded and for your sole use. It is fenced, gated and with a high hedge all around for complete privacy, also gives complete peace of mind for the safety and security of children. There are roman steps into the pool and a diving board at the other end. The area has ample comfy sun-loungers with cushions, parasols and an oak pavilion to relax inside when you want to escape from the heat of the day!
The mature gardens inside the pool area have mature trees and bushes.
Within the garden, amongst the orchard there are swings, an enclosed trampoline, table tennis table and a play house to keep the children entertained and occupied for many hours so that you too can relax and unwind!
4 large bedrooms. Master bedroom with king-size bed has its own en-suite shower room, double wardrobes, dressing table and a fabulous view of the valley and of the raised terrace below! A further double bedroom with a french relaxed feel about it over looks the orchard. There are 2 large bright twin bedrooms with open views of the gardens and the beauty beyond. A separate shower room upstairs and there is a downstairs bathroom with a corner bath and double wash basins.
This delightful kitchen feels like home from home with a large table seating 8 and has all the modern appliances, including a large electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, toaster, fridge, coffee machine etc, and the French doors open out onto the breakfast terrace with an undercover seating area.
There is a separate cool laundry room which has a washing machine, fridge freezer, iron and board and ample shelf storage.
The very large, bright living area has a beautiful antique table and chairs, seating 8 comfortably, a piano, and a dresser. There is also an inglenook fireplace, with a widescreen tv, dvd player and selection of dvd's, 2 sofas and 2 armchairs. This leads out onto the raised terrace which looks out over the open fields, where the deer come and graze happily away! The night skies are completely mesmerizing! They are filled with so many stars, that when you can gaze up at them you can watch the satellites cruise across the skies, all whilst under the flow of the milky way!!
The middle terrace has a BBQ and Pizza oven, large table and chairs so you can all chat together whilst waiting for lunch and dinner to be cooked!
Set in 80 acres of secluded meadow and woodland, a safe and peaceful environment with large mature gardens surrounding the property on all sides with fantastic views over-looking the countryside. Lots of walks in the cool and private peaceful woods.
Shaded private terraces for outside dining or curling up with a good book in the hammock, listening to the tree crickets whilst you slowly doze off for a siesta. There is something for everyone to enjoy here with many guests returning year after year!
The swimming pool is closed between the months of mid October through to the end of April.
Just a 20 min stroll to our local Bastide village, Villefranche du Perigord, has many shops, cafes and restaurants. It is one of the oldest and prettiest Bastide villages, dating back to the 12th Century, which still has its cobbled streets with tiny alleyways and large covered market square.
A real step back in time, where you can enjoy the fresh produce from the friendly local people. It is only 12 kms from Monpazier, 30 mins from Sarlat, Beynac, Roque de Gaceac, Domme, Les Eyzies and the Dordogne river. Great place for cycling with quiet roads.
Saturday to Saturday changeovers only during July and August.
Smoking outside areas ONLY.
Ideal for cycling and walking with many signed routes.

Just perfect!
La Borie Grande was the perfect place for us. A large private and very beautiful old French house equipped with everything you could possibly need and with gorgeous gardens to Potter around. The welcome basket of goodies was v appreciated after a long a drive. A lovely welcome from Tracy whom was always on hand if needed. We enjoyed watching the sun go down over the glorious views each evening on the deck and the pool was a godsend on a very hot week! Eating outside for breakfast, lunch and dinner with the amazing views was a real treat. While it feels like the house is lovely and secluded in the woods it’s only a 10 minute walk into the pretty village of Villefranche du Perigord for baguettes and groceries. The house is also in a great location for visiting the popular sites of the Dordogne . We would love to return and would highly recommend. Thank you Tracy for having us!

Superb

About the host

Hosted by Tracy Scott

Host profile image
My husband and I and our 2 girls moved here nearly 18 years ago. As soon as we saw this beautiful house and the old stunning barn within the grounds, we immediately fell in love with not only the place, but also the surrounding area which is steeped in history and beauty! We simply just couldn't go back! It truly is a step back in time! The clean air, night skies, peace and tranquillity and yet just a stones throw from the more tourist areas and places to visit.
Come and experience it for yourself you won't be disappointed!

Why they chose this property

Off the beaten track, yet close enough within walking distance to the local friendly village with plenty of shops, boulangeries, butchers, cafes, restaurants, mini-marts, bank, tourist office etc.
No passing traffic, safe haven for everybody to enjoy the peace and quiet and all the wildlife and feel totally relaxed. A great base to do some serious sightseeing! Or to simply re-charge your batteries and finish that book you never find the time for !

What makes this property unique

Complete safety. The beautiful large gardens, the smells from the roses, honeysuckles and lavenders, listening to the tree crickets soaking up the sun and the most amazing views and sunsets and starry skies that go on and on forever..........
